Does Your Boat Float?: Make and Float Your Own Recycled Ship!

Now that the Tall Ships have arrived... lets see if you can do better!

Join Abby at Greyhope Bay, overlooking the Tall Ships in port, where you’ll build and decorate your own boat from recycled and natural materials like milk jugs, cork, rocks, cardboard, paper, and more. Then, you can test your ship in our water basin to learn about buoyancy, before taking it home as a souvenir of your day by the sea.
